This calculator is included here since, although it has no known connection with ANITA, it is obviously a copy of the ANITA design. However, the plastic mouldings, the name panel, and the switches are not quite up to the ANITA quality.
If you have any further information about this Victron model and any connection with ANITA please get in touch.
As with the ANITA models, the rear aluminium cover slides up to allow the batteries to be replaced. In doing so it reveals the label which shows the details of this model.
Victron EC-805 with box and instructions, where it is called a "Mini Calculator" and a "Shirt Pocket Calculator".
With the case removed showing, in the photograph on the left, the upper circuit board with the LED display module and the Texas Instruments TMS0128NC integrated circuit, in the centre. The photograph on the right shows the lower circuit board with power supply and oscillator circuitry.
